11s are always gonna be the best to me! The ones are amazing but if it wasnt for all the collabs and colorways, I think it wouldnt be as hyped as they are today.
It could also be that they have so many colabs and colorways of the ones because people actually like it more than the 11s. At the same time, it's harder to make colabs and more colorways on the 11s
I own or owned 1, 4, 5, 11 and 13. I love them all. Not the same flare, comfort but each one has history. That's why I love them. I also owned 29, 31 and 32. I still rock the 32 casually even if they were dope in the gym.
My first Jordans (and the ones that got me to really appreciate sneakers after that) were a pair of 11s, so they will always have a special place in my heart.
Had some Fire Red 3's when they first dropped in the late 80's. They were pretty groundbreaking for the time and will always be my favorite Jordan of all time. Remember Black Cements were the most sought after back then and so hard to get globally. When he broke those out in the 1988 All Star Game it was a real wow moment. Must have replayed that game back like 20 - 30 times lol. This was before the Bulls started wearing black kicks in the Playoffs so MJ in black kicks was RARE.
Exactly. The 3 saved Nike. The 1 shares its history with the Air Ship. If it weren’t for the 3 there would be no history forward or back and the Air Jordan brand would have been with another company. Nobody would b talking about the 1. Best look, best feel, best colorways and it’s a mid which u can rock anywhere anytime. The 3 is king. 5. Jordan 11 4. Jordan 12 3. Jordan 6 2. Jordan 4 1. Jordan 3
Nice video. The 12 indigo colorway released in back in 97 as well. I remember this for sure because I had a friend who had them and I always tried to borrow them but he never let me. It was one of the OG 5 colorways. The french blue did not come out until 2004.
I got Jordans as my first basketball shoe. I absolutely love the design, comfort, traction, movement ability, and even down to the aesthetics. It’s just such an amazing line of shoes from a true legend. Today, I have some Kyrie’s but definitely want some more Jordans after seeing this video :) Forgot to say: They were three’s that I somehow found for cheap, didn’t know their history at the time.
The One Above All The 11’s will always be my favorite shoe and that was my first air Jordans back in high school 95/96. But I always heard that Jordan’s favorite shoe was the Air Jordan 3’s
Your Top 5 list in pretty on point man, I would switch a few of the rankings around. But other than that these are just about the same as my top 5 jays.
I didn't grow up with Jordan's and the first Jordan Brand shoe I got was a team model shoe around 2009. As a kid, because of my parents not getting me Jordan's, I never had a taste in the aesthetics of the shoe. As i've gotten older, (in my late 20's), my ranking is probably 1. 1's (1a) 2. 11's (1b, it's hard for me between the first two, after that my investment in the shoes drops) 3. 7's 4. 10's 5. 4's
Not a collector or sneaker head and I've never owned or really wanted J's... ...other than the 12. Drop dead gorgeous and the tech seems legit for hooping still. I really want a pair before I meet my maker. I'll also give an honorable mention to the 31. Traction may suck for hooping but I love the neo retro aesthetic. 1 may be a classic but I was never into it. The 31's modernization of the 1 though looks like a masterpiece, IMO. Now that I think about it, call me crazy but I'd probably choose the 31 over the 12.
Cherry 12 are my Absolute favorite show of all time, and Ive never owned a pair. I been waiting for the release since 09 when I missed them. I’m not a sneaker head, but I just want like 3 bucks pairs.
bro why does everyone like the 12's so much, i got the all red 12s and i would switch them for the the 11's. i mean why do u like the 12s anyway? sure, they got good color and stuff but the 4foot SUCKS.it has alot of bend marks, unlike the 11 they got flexible 4foot AND great color.
My top 5 1. XI- Simply the best j and sneaker of all time 2. III- The reason why Mike stayed with Nike and one casual looking bball sneaker. 3. XIII- Flawless panther inspiration on full effect like the man itself. 4. XII- My first pair of js back in 97, a sentimental favorite. 5. VI- Mike immortalized the VI during the 91 finals and his iconic mid-air handswitch layup moment in route to his 1st title.
5: Jordan 11 (concord) 4: Jordan 1 (chicago) 3: Jordan 5 (black metallic) 2: Jordan 3 (white cement) 1: Jordan 4 (white cement) White Cement 4s are my favourite sneakers of all time. Now before y'all start crying and saying ''how can you put 5s and 3s above 1s and 11s'', It's just my opinion. If I had to rank iconic sneakers, I probably woul've put the 1s, 11s, 6s, 4s and 3s on there, but I'm talking about looks now. I just think the 5s look cleaner than 1s.
The 6s. Love my 6s. They should start to retro the blue and the reverse infrared colorway that never made it. I guarantee if they ever did release the reverse infrared that they would sale out!
My Top 5 Jordans: 1. Jordan 1s 2. Jordan 3s 3. Jordan 4s 4. Jordan 11s 5. Jordan 13/12 (I really cant decide between the two, so I'm tying them) PS. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="397">6:37</a>: Air Jordan 4 Alternate 89s, probably my all time favorite Jordan 4s (yes, over the White Cement and Black Cement 4s). Criminally underrated (I got mine in the outlet for 25% off three months after release), great leather quality, really easy to pair, looks great beat up or fresh.
Here's my list: 1. Air Jordan 1-100% Agree! It will always and forever be the one that started it all. 2. Air Jordan 11-100% Agree! This is the quintessential Jordan Model, hands down. 3. Air Jordan 6- These are the Promise Land, and the Beginning of the Championship Era. 4. Air Jordan 3- The Tinker that started it all. Black Cement and Free Throw Lines will always be must haves for me. (Even if they dropped every year.) 5. Air Jordan 12-The Flu Game's are just iconic and I personally love the silhouette too. Honorable Mention goes to the Air Jordan 4's and 7's. (I think that the 7's are terribly underrated.)
JAHRONMON He meant the Obsidians, which differ from the image you showed in the video. They had an obsidian blue upper, the lizard embossed part was white, and the Jumpman and accents were Carolina blue. Dope video, keep it up!
I made the decision to get Jordan 1 and Jordan 11 and cheat and also get Airships black and red. I can't believe you had those two as tops. I'm good with those three because I identify a lot with them. It's tricky when collecting, you can easily fall down a rabbit hole.
Air Jordan 1 is one of the most iconic shoes of all time. It's so good in numerous colorways and cuts. Damn that OG Chicago is my grail. Back in the days the aj1 were customizable at Nike Id. Shame I never made one.
12’s def the best Jordan’s & got by far the most iconic colorways.. Taxi/Playoffs/Cherry’s/Flu game/French Blue/Obsidian/Masters/Wings/OVO/etc...def bussn all the other Jordan’s
When I grew up it was my brother that was into basketball now that I have extra money to waste on myself, I really like the 11's 12's & 14's. (I'm new to Air Jordan's) ...with that being said I think Jordan Ones are to Plain Jane.
For me the Best Jordan’s are. 1. Jordan 4’s White Cement 2. Jordan 3’s Black Cement 3. Jordan 5’s Black Metallic 4. Jordan 6’s Carmine 5. Jordan 11’s Bred
My personal fave is the IV since Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing. Everyone else’s fave is the XI which even I believe is the most handsome of all the J’s. But I agree that the I’s are the most classic, iconic shoes. We wouldn’t have Dunks without them. Pretty much the Chuck Taylors of basketball shoes. It’ll just never go out of style. Where as all the other J’s defines the era it came from.
For me I wear the 5’s in black and white and the 9’s in North Carolina blue. I am still contemplating on getting either the black or white 4’s. Each to their own.
5. Jordan 11 4. Jordan 12 3. Jordan 6 2. Jordan 4 1. Jordan 3 The 3 not only saved Nike but elevated the Jordan Brand to Air Jordan. Game changer. Best OG colorways, most comfortable and a mid that can be worn anytime anywhere. It’s the 3 that rules them all. We’d have no history to retro anything if it weren’t for the 3. Thank you Tinker Hatfield!!
5. Air Jordan 13 retro "Hyper Royal" 4. Air Jordan 11 "Concord" 3. Air Jordan 4 "Bred" 2. Air Jordan 6 "Infrared" 1. Air Jordan 1 "Chicago" That would be it for me c:
For me the 13s is at the top of the list.. I got the hyper royals, the he got game’s, the bred’s & the midnight navy’s.. for me the bred 13s are the best J’s of all times💯
Sorry, my list: 1: 13 Bred 2: 12 Cherry 3: 7 Cardinal 4: 20 Quickstrike 5: 17 Copper Plus None of my numbers hit the list and ion even care cause I’m me damnit.
AJ 1s may be the simplest in design compared to the others but they are nostalgic and bring back memories of our youth when we couldn't afford to get one.
11's are my favorite of all time. Second the 7's. Third the 8's. 4th the 12's. 5th the 6's. 6th the 9's. 7th is the 13's. 8th is the 3's. 9th is the fives. And 10th is the the tens.
It’s funny, in the late 90’s and early 2000’s the Air Force 1 was the most sought after retro and they’re still a classic, but the Jordan 1 retro seems to have replaced it.
I loved this. I'm sorry I didn't see this earlier. So glad you mentioned Jordan strapping on the 1's again at the garden making his toes bleed that's GOAT legacy! My number 1 would be the 12s that full length zoom is beast and they are almost indestructible. Also all the details from the two 3 on the tounge or the 23 to the pull tab. 5. Jordan 4 4. Jordan 6 3. Jordan 11 2. Jordan 13 1. Jordan 12
Honestly I think 4s and 6s are hands down the best and even 13s I love me some flint 13s, but I love love some 11s like the concords and breds but overall I think my first pick would probably be the 4s and my favorite 4s you ask me? The Oreo 4s, bred 4s, and the Motorsport 4s
@@xers6704 if you were to wear on basketball shoes, will you wear 1s? bruh i bet your feet will bleed. 11s are more iconic for me. 1s their just the first shoe of MJ. and more likely used now by hypebeasts and travis scott collabs. its like Bohemian Rhapsody covered by Pan!c at the Disco. lol im just saying.
I remember when you could just go to footlocker and just get whatever Jordan's you wanted. The 11s where a little hard to get when they first came out but other then that.
*sees top 5 Air Jordans sneakers video* Me: oh wow this seems promising. *clicks video* JAHRONMON: number 5: the Air Jordan 12 *clicks off video* Edit: Air Jordan 6 is not top 5? And called French blue 12s an OG colorway? 💀
My top ten are: 1. 11s 2. 6s 3. 4s 4. 5s 5. 3s 6. 13s 7. 12s 8. 14s 9. 7s 10. 1s It's crazy how online hype took the AJ 1 from clearance rack junk nobody wanted to somehow the "best" Jordans when really they are just the new Chuck Taylor's, flat and very uncomfortable lol
